Composer Jeff Russo said in December 2020 that he was beginning to think about the score for the season, adding, "there's a lot going on there". Russo had begun recording the season's score with an orchestra at the Sony Pictures Scoring Stage by December 2021, and completed recording for the season finale on January 12, 2022. The season features an "up-tempo rearrangement" of the series' main theme. In Thatcher's first appearance as the punk on the bus in The Voyage Home, the character listens to a punk rock song titled "I Hate You" that Thatcher wrote and performed with members of the film's crew. For this season, Thatcher wrote and performed a new song for the character to listen to, titled "I Still Hate You". The Voyage Home sound editors Mark Mangini and Aaron Glascock returned to record the new song, respectively performing guitar and drums. For Ozell's cameo appearance, she and her band perform the song "Take You Down" from her album Overnight Lows. Episode director Joe Menendez chose the song, which Ozell called a "strong, sassy, bluesy powerful anthem".
